Mission and history
The mission of the State Freedom Caucus Network is "to provide conservatives in state capitals nationwide the resources they need to win."[5] It provides support in areas such as staffing, communication, strategy, tactics and logistics.[6]
The State Freedom Caucus Network advises its member caucuses to loudly oppose Republicans who they deem to have "compromised on fiscal and cultural conservative principles."[7] This has led to a number of battles between state Republican leadership and caucus members, including in the Mississippi and South Carolina.[8][2]
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis headlined the Network's annual dinner in 2025.[9]
State Caucuses
As of 2024, the State Freedom Caucus Network has formed caucuses within thirteen state legislatures, including Arizona, Georgia, Idaho,[10] Illinois, Louisiana, Maryland, Missouri, Montana, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, South Dakota and Wyoming.[5][11][12] State caucuses have framed their work as a fight for "open, accountable and limited government, the Constitution and the rule of law, and policies that promote the liberty, safety and prosperity of all Americans".[6]
